I'm not Krist Perawat!!

"No!" Said Picesri, shaking her head vigorously as soon as Jaokhun parked his car and killed the engine. "There's no way I'm going to have my dinner in there." She observed the five star hotel where Jaokhun had decided to take her for dinner. She never been to such places and she was afraid, she might embarrass Jaokhun in front of everybody especially those people who came from the elite circle. It might be normal for Jaokhun to have a meal there since he came from wealthy family, but for her, this was totally not her place.

"Why not? It's not everyday you get to eat at expensive and luxurious hotel. Besides, it's my treat. Since I'm the man, I will spend my money on you like a gentleman should be." Jaokhun winked to ease Picesri's anxiety.

Picesri continued shaking her head. "No, Jaokhun. I don't think I fit in. Can we just go and eat somewhere else? I don't mind having dinner from the street stall. In fact it's better if we go there because I can be myself and eat as much as I want with a small amount of money."

"True. But this is a date. You should be treated like a princess. And I do want to treat you like a princess. So, this is the right place for me to do that."

"But...," Picesri looked down at her clothes, "...my attire....I don't properly dressed for this place, unlike you who always look presentable."

Jaokhun smiled. He just realized, despite being a tomboy, Picesri was just like any other women who worried about her look. Somehow, he found it adorable. "You look fine to me." He said as he unbuckled his seatbelt and turned to face Picesri. "You don't look sloppy. I can lend you my blazer if you still think you are not properly dress."

"It's too big for me." Picesri sighed and pouted. "Please, Jaokhun. Let's not eat here. I do whatever you want, as long as we go elsewhere."

Jaokhun grinned. "Whatever I want?"

Picesri immediately covered her mouth when she realized what she had said to Jaokhun. "I mean..."

"Nope. Too late for that. You can't take back your word. You need to comply with whatever I want if you choose to have dinner elsewhere." Jaokhun tapped the steering wheel with his naughty fingers.

"Jaokhun...I..."

"No, Picesri. You are not allowed to take it back." Jaokhun said in his authority voice.

Picesri huffed deeply. "What do you want me to do?" She crossed her fingers, praying that Jaokhun didn't ask for anything weird.

Jaokhun slowly leaned closer to Picesri until they were a few centimetres apart. "I want you to let me kiss your lips whenever I want."

"What?!" Picesri covered her mouth again and shook her head. "That is absurd! You can't ask me to simply let you do that!"

"Then, let's go in there and have our dinner." Jaokhun pointed to the hotel.

"You know what, sure...let's do that! And don't get mad if I embarrass you in there!" Picesri decided to just agree. It was better than giving her virgin lips to someone like Jaokhun who wasn't even her real boyfriend. "What are you waiting for?! Unlock the door! Let's get this date over before I lose my appetite!"

Jaokhun smiled. Without saying another word, he unlocked the door and they both got out before he locked his car again. "Come, Picesri." He casually grabbed Picesri's hand and entwined their fingers.

Picesri was stupefied. Her eyes were glued to their clasping hands, wondering what Jaokhun was thinking. Wouldn't he be embarrassed if people saw that he was holding a person who was a bit different from a normal woman? "Jaokhun.."

"I know what you are going to say. But we're on a date. It's normal to hold hands. So, keep your opinion to yourself, because I don't care what other people think about me. I told you, I want to treat you like a princess, so, stop worrying about other things." He said calmly as they walked to the reception counter of that five star hotel restaurant, and asked regarding the reservation he had made earlier through a phone call. It was not just a normal reservation. He reserved the private dining room just for them, because he already predicted that Picesri might not feel uncomfortable, dining with other people.

"Private room?" Picesri once again was lost for words.

Jaokhun said nothing in return, but tugging Picesri to keep walking, following the waiter who took them to that private dining room, which mostly reserved for VIP customers. "Thank you. And you may start serving us now." He said to the waiter and pulled a chair for Picesri to sit.

"Err....thanks..." Picesri felt awkward. No one had ever did that for her. It was her first time. Apparently, it was nice to actually experience such treatment from a man.

"I hope you're not allergic to anything, because to be honest, I've already ordered in advance."

Picesri gaped in disbelief. "Fuck, Jaokhun! What if I stubbornly refused to eat here? What will happen to those food? Do you still have to pay for them?"

Jaokhun simply raised his brows, and it made Picesri facepalmed.

"You are so fucking stupid. Do you know that?"

"Maybe...but...it doesn't matter. We're here at last. I don't have to pay for compensation. And I still get to have dinner with you." Jaokhun winked.

"Stupid..." Picesri mumbled as she observed the room in awe, wondering how much Jaokhun had to spend for her. If she was given a choice, she would never pick this place, but it was Jaokhun who arranged the whole date. Whether she liked it or not, she just had to bear with it. "Jaokhun...." She called out when she remembered something that she had been wanting to ask him.

"Hmm..." Jaokhun hummed.

"You haven't given me the answer regarding the time you started to have interest in me."

"So?" Jaokhun retorted, waiting for her to continue.

"I demand your answer, Jaokhun. You promised to tell me if I agreed to date you."

Jaokhun smirked. "Okay...but...let's do that later, since our food is here." He smiled at the two waiters who brought the food he ordered.

"Hey! You're avoiding to answer me!" Picesri scowled but immediately apologized because her voice had startled those waiters. She patiently waited for them to leave and started to nag again.

"I will tell you, Picesri." Jaokhun replied, cutting the steak in his plate into smaller pieces, before exchanged his plate with Picesri who was totally dumbfounded by his action. "But not today. I will tell you when the time is right. Now, let's eat and enjoy our date."
